Benefits of technology

[0023]The phosphorescent material sintered body with loose blocks can be obtained by cooling the sintered phosphorescent material in air. The phosphorescent material powder with uniform particle size (fineness can attain nanometer scale) can be obtained by the jaw crusher, crush roller, jet mill, ultrasonic vibrating screen. Then the surface of the obtained product is further processed by the surface coated treatment with the 0.1-2% concentration (weight) of ethyl orthosilicate or methyl silicone oil whereby the high brightness, ultra-long after-glow in the present invention and luminescent powders with uniform particle size and excellent water resistance can be obtained.
[0024]Compared with the conventional methods, the luminescent material in accordance with the present invention is of loose blocks, easy to be comminuted and the obtained product has a uniform particle size. In addition, the product has the good property excited by faint light, high luminescence brightness and after-glow lasted for a long time. Moreover, the product in the present invention is of good water resistance and has strong practicality.
[0025]The ultra-long after-glow phosphorescent material in the present invention is a composite substrate inorganic luminescent material with superior luminescent property to that of the phosphorescent material based on aluminate substrate. This phosphorescent material has polyhedron crystal lattice and can be excited quickly under faint light (1-3 seconds). In addition, the obtained composite long after-glow phosphorescent material as substrate with a very small particle size (such as nanometer scale) still has high brightness, ultra-long after-glow properties. And also such material has excellent water resistance property. In addition, the ultra-long after-glow multi substrate phosphorescent material in present invention also has good heat resistance, which can be combined with ceramic materials and calcified at 500-1000° C. to produce a luminescent ceramic article with insusceptible luminescence brightness.

Problems solved by technology

This kind of sulfide with very short after-glow time, instable properties, poor photostability and short lifetime, however, should not be used outdoors basically.
Even used for a clock panel, it cannot meet the needs due to only 20-30 minutes in after-glow time.
But the radioactive material is an acknowledged dangerous pollution source.
It will have serious damage for human body and environment.
JP8-73845, JP8-127772 shows higher brightness and longer after-glow time, however, the sintering blocks are difficult to be broken, resulting in great depression of the powder brightness due to excessive high sintering temperature, or high sintering temperature reduced by introduced excessive boric acid.
At the same time, because the N2+H2 gas mixture is used, the operational security is not good and equipment difficulty is increased.
Also the requirement for heating becomes stricter due to excessive high sintering temperature, consequently the cost is increased.
But as described above, the problems, such as high temperature during its production process, high hardness of the product bulk, difficult to be broken have always perplexed people.
However, the fluorescence brightness and water resistance of the obtained product still can not meet the needs for long-term storage.
